REPORT: Ocasio-Cortez: GOP is ‘intellectually bankrupt’
As the most reliable and balanced news aggregation service on the internet, DML News offers the following information published by TheHill.com:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) blasted Republican critics on Saturday after a series of right-wing conspiracy theories about her surfaced on Twitter.
“This stuff is really sad. The GOP is so intellectually bankrupt that they no longer engage to debate issues in good faith, but instead seek to lie, distort, name-call, target, & destroy people/communities w any means possible,” she tweeted early Saturday morning. “It’s a virus and a race to the bottom.”
The article goes on to state the following:
A slew of conspiracy theories have bubbled up on social media regarding Ocasio-Cortez’s finances, with some claiming she is secretly wealthy while others mock her working class background. The freshman Democratic lawmaker responded to a tweet from one Twitter user that claimed she “has a 430 credit score, two evictions, and an empty résumé.” The user suggested Ocasio-Cortez’s background made her ill-equipped to handle economic issues in Congress.
This stuff is really sad. The GOP is so intellectually bankrupt that they no longer engage to debate issues in good faith, but instead seek to lie, distort, name-call, target, & destroy people/communities w any means possible.
It’s a virus and a race to the bottom.

The right has gotten increasingly desperate w/spreading targeted rumors about me lately.
Someone made up a meme that led to @snopes disproving this: https://t.co/M5ffXwvmtT
(Also, I had to live alone in my family’s apt after my dad died, so the eviction lie is especially bad) https://t.co/gJ8NYgenSR

It’s pretty wild that the GOP can’t decide whether they’re going to run with the conspiracy theory that I’m secretly rich, or the exaggeration & mockery of my family’s struggle after my dad died during the financial crisis.
Instead, they decide to defy logic and run with both.

“Logic” should not be used in ANY sentence AOC spews. It is increasingly apparent she had none. The “intellectually bankrupt” AOC needs to look in the mirror.
